MY MONEY MY VALUES: CORPORATION LIST

Though personal beliefs are both carefully respected and vigilantly protected in the United States of America, it is an entirely different matter when a publicly-traded corporation invests their financial resources to promote morally-questionable behavior or politically-driven intentions. This forces an unnecessary moral choice onto the consumer, while simply engaging in the act of shopping, and makes their purchase an indirect political contribution to an agenda they may or may not support. Nowhere is this more evident in today's society than with the issue of "redefining" marriage.

It is in the foregoing light, that I am creating this list (and encouraging contributions to this list), so anyone may see quickly what corporations (not individual employees but the corporations themselves) are financially supporting.

It is my understanding from emails my dad has forwarded to me from a family organization that Home Depot is a big supporter of gay marriage, too. I haven't researched it, though. I almost wish I hadn't seen your list, as my family loves Nature Valley and Yoplait, and Larabars have been very kind to me. I guess I'd rather know, though. I was actually going to start making our own granola bars. This is all very disconcerting.I can't believe that so many companies contribute.

Candice... I feel your pain ;). We loved Yoplait too, but we adapted and now we love Dannon even more, they have most of the same flavors and are the same price at Walmart. Also, thanks for the tip on The Home Depot and you are absolutely right, they have financially supported the "gay" rights agenda for some time. I have added them. http://action.afa.net/item.aspx?id=2147496231

My Bio

"The 'separation of church and state' doctrine is a misinterpretation of the (U.S.) Constitution. The First Amendment... aims at forbidding all government-sponsored coercion of religious conscience. It does NOT forbid all religious influence upon politics or society." - Alan Keyes. I’m Darin Scott. This is not a religious or political blog, but I openly confess I am a devoutly religious person and my convictions influence all that I am. By extension, I find it both a civic duty and a sacred privilege to passionately support honest leaders who may have influence over the laws of the land. I'm married to my best friend, and I'm a proud father of 3. Born and raised in the USA, grew up in Washington state and also lived in OR, UT, CA, and El Salvador. I am driven by Freedom, Truth, Love, Virtue, Honesty, Humility, Understanding, and Forgiveness. I am NOT driven by money, power, or being necessarily “popular”. I say what I feel and feel what I say. I seek earnestly (but imperfectly) to be a friend of Jesus Christ. By profession,
I'm a film Actor, Director, Writer, and Producer; it's what I love and what I do best.
